Did you know?
While Corot is world-renowned for his poetic, misty landscapes, he painted a surprising number of intimate figure studies throughout his career. This self-portrait reveals a sharp, focused intensity in his gaze, a stark contrast to the soft, ethereal light he would later master in his famous scenes of the French countryside.
